Hi All,

Passing values across code blocks makes Org babel a powerful meta
programming language:

   #+name: input
   #+BEGIN_SRC sh :results output
   echo "3"
   #+END_SRC

   #+BEGIN_SRC R :var a=input()
   a
   #+END_SRC

   #+RESULTS:
   | 3 |
   |   |

However, this feature does not work with cache.  In case that "input"
code block takes a long time to evaluate, it is a good idea to cache the
result.  But that returns "nil" in subsequent function calls:

   #+name: input
   #+BEGIN_SRC sh :results output :cache yes
   echo "3"
   #+END_SRC

   #+RESULTS[f69ecd305ebd448fc39b05809d214261a777c6bc]: input
   : 3

   #+BEGIN_SRC R :var a=input()
   a
   #+END_SRC

   #+RESULTS:
   : nil

Recalling the cached function should return exactly the same result by
definition of "cache".

Or is there a way to circumvent this by referring to the "RESULT" field
directly?

Cheers,
Benda
